Abigail observed Sage momentarily before holstering her gun. "Get lost. I can't stand seeing you anymore. I wish I could kill you right now!" If it weren't for Sean's predicament, she wouldn't have despised them so much.
With that, Sage left the room.
After an intense hour of combat outside, Chris burst into the room, his expression grave. "We're outmatched! They're too professional!"
Abigail frowned. "Even with our numbers?!"
"They're seasoned sailors. What did you anticipate?" Simond retorted icily.
Abe staggered in, clutching his injured shoulder as he delivered urgent news to Abigail. "They're coming again, and their fleet has grown. "I never imagined there were so many pirates nearby!"
Abigail took Chris' binoculars. "Cover me while I go investigate!" Abigail instructed Chris, prompting him to follow her. Meanwhile, Simond signaled to Sage, and the two of them accompanied Abigail outside.
With everyone providing cover on the deck, Abigail scanned the horizon through her binoculars, and a glimmer of hope flickered within her as she spotted Xavien's silhouette on one of the approaching vessels. A faint smile appeared on her lips. "They are reinforcements. Keep attacking the pirates!"
Hearing that, everyone charged forward with fervor. Even Sage and Simond had to join the fray.
As Xavien Summer arrived on the scene, he watched Abigail swiftly dispatching a pirate who had grabbed her before swiftly eliminating him with a precise shot.
While her marksmanship wasn't exceptional amidst the chaos, with Simond, Chris, Abe, and the other mercenaries protecting her, she remained unharmed.
"Attack!" Xavien immediately commanded.
His ship encircled the pirates' vessel and launched a relentless assault, eliminating all pirates who were hiding in the rear and leaving them devoid of supplies.
Three hours later, the naval battle slowly subsided.
Abigail lay sprawled on the deck, her breaths coming in heavy gasps. Xavien rushed over from his vessel and scooped her up. "Are you okay, Ms. Quinn?"
Abigail trembled slightly, her eyes clouded with red as she looked up at Xavien. "Did they really throw Sean into the sea?"
Xavien nodded. "Are you here to avenge him?"
"Did you eliminate them all?" Abigail's sole concern was this.
"I believe so." Xavien wasn't certain if they had any remnants, but the fact that Abigail's ship, disguised as a wealthy merchant vessel, did attract many pirates. No wonder there were over a dozen pirate ships that night.
